CREWE’S Bentley Motors has been selected to offer guidance and inspiration to young people interested in manufacturing careers.

The luxury car firm will feature in the ‘Make it Your Future’ area of the Government’s Make it in Great Britain exhibition, which is taking place at the Science Museum between July 24 and September 9.

The exhibition will celebrate the very best of British manufacturing and offer information and advice to young people interested in pursuing a career in the industry.

It will include case studies of three successful Bentley employees – the company’s head of product management, Paul Jones, and former apprentices Hannah Proffitt and Louis Warburton.

Hannah, who was recently named in Make it in Great Britain’s ‘30 under 30’, is now an electrical engineer, while Louis, who is an apprentice ambassador and former Volkswagen Group Apprentice of the Year, is now a CAD engineer.

Bentley’s member of the board for personnel Christine Gaskell said: “We feel very proud to be representing the best of UK manufacturing.

“Our site here in Crewe is the epitome of high value manufacturing and we employ some of the most highly skilled engineers in the country.

“With so many people from across UK and the wider globe going to London this summer, this exhibition on manufacturing is perfectly timed.”

Business Minister Mark Prisk added: “I hope that as many people as possible visit the exhibition and see all of the great examples of British design and manufacturing. It will be spectacular.”

The event at the Exhibition Road museum, South Kensington, is free to visit. For more visit www.bis.gov.uk/makeitingreatbritain.
